Description of the problem	When i start the engine it makes a very loud rattling noise and when i drive and i push on gas it is rattles. It sounds more like grinding loud noise too. Motor knocks when you start it up and now for the last week when i start it the car will sputter and then shot off. Sometimes will take many times for it to even start. It will rpm very high even when i am not moving. I have had alot of problems with this car now bc of the issues i am using more gas. I have a little under 80 thousand miles on it and it will leave me set. Wondering if anyone knows of any recalls on this stuff or know what could be wrong with it and if hyundai still does life time warranty... Thanks

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
